I have reached a part of book 2 which is so much fun to write that I am genuinely cackling to myself. Muahahaha! I’d judge myself, but this is too fun to stop.

This is a deeply troubling story, in that it really emulates the world we are currently living in. The characters are ones that you will cheer for (and hope for). This was a powerful read. #theoutcastmage #annabelcampbell #debutauthor #theshatteredlands #Orbitbooks #bookreview

Annabel Campbell's 'The Outcast Mage' is a thriller full of politics, magic, dragons and high emotional stakes. It wasn't really my cup of tea but a lot of fantasy fans will love it.

4) #TheOutcastMage by
@annabelcwrites.bsky.social - 3.5/5 (ARC)
In the vein of Trudi Canavan, this traditionally structured fantasy is comfortable in its tropes and is just packed with so much plot. The book flows brilliantly but I did think the book went too big too quickly at the end
"The Outcast Mage" by Annabel Campbell is the story of Naila, a student mage trapped in the schemes of her city's elite, working against time to prove that she can control her powers without destroying the world. #bookrecommendations #tbrlist #theoutcastmage #annabelcampbell #fantasy

Me (a woman with short wavy blonde hair, pink glasses, a big oversized beige cardigan, black t-shirt, patterned blue skirt and green boots) sitting in the window of Toppings next to a table with two stacks of THE OUTCAST MAGE. I’m in the middle of signing an open copy. There’s a blue stamp, an orange stamp pad and a pile of bookmarks on the table.
Me (a woman with short wavy blonde hair, pink glasses, a big oversized beige cardigan, black t-shirt, patterned blue skirt and green boots) standing next to stacks of THE OUTCAST MAGE, one of them stacked higher than me. Behind them is Andrew, the lovely bookseller who helped me (tall man, ginger hair and beard, black glasses, check shirt).

I had a wonderful day yesterday signing books at Toppings in Edinburgh (bookseller Andrew made sure to stack the books taller than me 😂) and Waterstones Princes Street. It was such a fun and totally surreal experience. #books #fantasy #theoutcastmage #reading 📚💙

I beta read several versions of #TheOutcastMage and it got better with every revision, which is impressive given how good it was initially
We’re just under two weeks before it hits shelves, and I can’t wait to experience it in its final form
That it comes out a week after Trump takes office is…
I can’t describe how in awe I am of my amazing wife @annabelcwrites.bsky.social, and how amazing it is that I keep seeing people list her upcoming debut book #TheOutcastMage as one of their most anticipated books of 2025. 💙 📚
A reviewer described my disaster wizard character as ‘magnificent chaos’ and that’s it - job done. I have achieved what I set out to do. 😂🧡

@annabelcwrites.bsky.social #TheOutcastMage makes the list!
Apparently I am dumb, and didn’t specify that “it” was referring to her debut novel #TheOutcastMage…
A love letter to classic fantasy written for a modern reader. This book reminded why I started reading fantasy as a kid, hiding a book under my desk, pretending to pay attention to class, while I was lost in another world. It captures that magic, and bottles it up in a package that's aged up with the reader. There's a coming of age story here, but there's also being of age where character have to come to terms with past mistakes, and reconsider opportunities they may have missed. You'll fall in love with the characters, Naila the clear protagonist takes centre stage, with her quest to find out who she is and the source of her sinister power. But the ensemble cast all jump off the page, and into your heart. My favourite is Larinne, a member of Amoria's magical aristocracy, fierce, faithful, and powerful she fights for the fate of the city she loves, and the friendship of the the man who's power could be its salvation or its downfall. Haelius, Naila's powerful mentor, would in any other book be a mysterious character who inspires a million AO3 fanfics. What's wonderful about the Outcast mage is you get to see the older characters deal with their own baggage first hand, he's brilliantly portrayed, and lovable even if his best intentions sometimes cause more trouble than they prevent. His relationships with Larinne and Malik feel so real you can picture them drink tea together and getting into heated arguments between the chapters; and his rivalry with Oriven is a driving force for his misery. Then there's the odd couple of strangers to Amoria, a mysterious priest and an even more mysterious mercenary, why are they in the city, what mischief are they up to and what secrets are they hiding from. The city of Amoria is on the brink of civil war, between those with magic and those without, but could they all be pawns in someone else's game?
